Just received this in my inbox and thought it was worth sharing for a laugh. The video creator gives a shout out to Cenk, too...


Keep in mind that Sarah Palin has had OVER A YEAR to come up with an answer for why she's qualified to be president, and this is the best she could come up with. I did no editing on her answer — she really does sound that stupid. Here's a transcript of Palin's answer:

Bill O'Reilly: Let me be very bold and fresh again, do you believe that you are smart enough, incisive enough, intellectual enough to handle the most powerful job in the world?

Sarah Palin: I believe that I am because I have common sense and I have I believe the values that I think are reflective of so many other American values, and I believe that what Americans are seeking is not the elitism, the uhm, the ah, a kind of spineless, spinelessness that perhaps is made up for that with some kind of elite, Ivy league education and, and a fat resume that is based on anything but hard work and private sector, free enterprise principles. Americans are could be seeking something like that in positive change in their leadership, I'm not saying that that has to be me.


HT to Cenk Uygur and his great op-ed on Palin's stupidity (http://is.gd/5gBTE) for making me aware of this interview, which I hadn't seen.
